When Song Kai heard that Zhu Fan was in a car accident, the first thought he had was that Jiang Jingchen was behind it.
He got into his car to go to the hospital. He called Jiang Jingchen and asked if he had done anything to Zhu Fan.
Jiang Jingchen chuckled. “You think that I’ll create just a car accident when 1 want to get even with someone? Song Kai, am I that kind in your opinion?”
“It wasn’t you?”
“Hey, don’t slander me without any evidence. That’s not the behavior I’d expect from my supposed collaborator.”
“But since this stemmed from your concern for your roommate, I’ll tell you that Zhu Fan’s car accident was caused by his drunk driving.”
Song Kai was stunned for a few seconds. After he heard Jiang Jingchen hang up, he rushed to the hospital and saw Zhu Fan with bandages on his head.
He walked closer and asked, “Zhu Fan, did you drink and drive?”
Before Zhu Fan could say anything, the woman next to him scolded, “What drink and drive? My son was in a bad mood, so he drank a little. It was someone else who ran into my son. I won’t let this matter rest.”
Song Kai had met Zhu Fan’s mother before. She was a gentle person but the woman in front of him now looked familiar but more ferocious.
“Are you badly injured?”
Zhu Fan waved his hand and shook his head weakly. “I’m okay. 1 just feel a little dizzy. I’ll be fine after a couple of days’ rest.”
Song Kai looked at Zhu Fan’s bandaged wrist and asked, “Why were you in a bad mood? What happened?”
Mrs. Zhu laughed coldly. “It’s all because that unchaste girl wanted to break up with my son. She’s already had her first kiss, yet she dared to seduce my son.” “That filthy girl! If she hasn’t upset my son, my son wouldn’t have gotten into a car accident.”
“Song Kai, never introduce that kind of woman to Zhu Fan in the future. My Zhu Fan is so outstanding. He must marry a noble and chaste woman.”
Song Kai knew that the Zhu family was particular about these things, but he didn’t expect them to be so particular.
Zhu Fan was a little annoyed. “Mom, stop talking. You are making me dizzy.”
“Okay, okay, Fanfan, I’ll stop. Rest well. She’s just a filthy girl. Don’t be sad. When you’re better, 1’11 find you a few women to choose from. All of them will be pure and beautiful.”
Song Kai chuckled and Mrs. Zhu frowned. “Song Kai, what are you laughing about?”
Song Kai looked at Zhu Fan and said, “You like chaste women, why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Zhu Fan asked in exasperation, “Don’t you want your girlfriend to be clean, pure, and cute? She didn’t just lose her first kiss; she made out with another man in public at the hot spring hotel. I feel disgusted just by looking at that kind of woman.”
Song Kai did not know much about Ruan Qi’s love life, but a woman who was Tang Beibei’s friend couldn’t be that bad a person.
Most adults nowadays would have had one or two relationships before they settled down. Why should Zhu Fan expect his girlfriend to be clean, pure, and cute?
“Is a chaste woman dirty after she’s been touched by you?” Song Kai asked.
Zhu Fan got upset. “Song Kai, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that I’m dirty?”
Song Kai didn’t like to make enemies, so he always greeted people with a smile. But Zhu Fan had tampered with Jiang Jingchen’s car and injured Ruan Qi and Tang Beibei.
And now he was complaining that Ruan Qi was dirty and not worthy of him?
Song Kai could only accept the fact that he had been blind to not see the scum of the earth that was his roommate.
“Whatever.”
The Zhu family wanted a chaste daughter-in-law. It had nothing to do with him, so it was pointless for him to say more.
He turned to leave, but Zhu Fan stopped him. “Song Kai, do you know what kind of woman Ruan Qi is when you introduced her to me? I won’t blame you for being deceived by her appearance. We’re still good friends, right?”
Song Kai laughed in exasperation. “I’ve been unlucky since young. It’s better if you don’t be good friends with me. Let’s not hang out anymore.”
Zhu Fan frowned and asked unhappily, “You! What do you mean by that? Don’t tell me she’s also seduced you and had intimate contact with you?”
In Zhu Fan’s heart, Song Kai was nice, always smiling and reliable.
In their dormitory, the two of them were the closest. They played basketball, ate, and studied together every day. He cherished Song Kai as a friend.
Although Song Kai was the one who introduced that dirty woman to him, he felt that Song Kai might have been bewitched by that woman’s appearance.
But when he considered the possibility that Ruan Qi might have had a relationship with Song Kai before she pursued him, he felt his stomach turn as if he had eaten a fly.
Song Kai couldn’t tolerate Zhu Fan’s malicious insults towards Ruan Qi anymore. He punched Zhu Fan in the jaw before he pointed at him and scolded, “The young master of the Zhu family, huh? Who do you think you are? She’s a hundred times cleaner than you. Don’t tell people that you know me from now on!”
Song Kai flung his punching hand. He found it ridiculous that his former friend had revealed his ugliest side because of a woman.
“Song Kai, you’re just an illegitimate son of the Song Family, a bastard. What right do you have to hit my son, you bastard!” Mrs. Zhu shouted angrily.
Song Kai glanced at the elegantly dressed Mrs. Zhu and sneered.
It seemed like Zhu Fan had inherited his bad attitude from his mother.
He didn’t want to waste time with them, so he walked out of the hospital and let out a cold sigh.
Zhu Fan had indeed taught him a valuable lesson. One shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. Even a beast could dress himself up as a gentleman.
He put in his earbuds and called Jiang Jingchen.
When the call connected, the first thing he said was, “I’m sorry. I’ve wronged you.”
Song Kai wasn’t a pretentious person. He would admit his mistakes, even if the mistake made him feel a little aggrieved.
“Oh. Why didn’t you punch him a few more times? This kid Zhu Fan really needs a beating.”
Song Kai was shocked. He turned his head to look around, but he didn’t see anything suspicious.
“Did you send someone to follow me?”
“Oi, Song Kai. Is your forte slandering people?”
Song Kai was speechless and then he realized that Jiang Jingchen did say that he would teach Zhu Fan a lesson. So, it was reasonable to expect that he would hire someone to tail Zhu Fan.
But the people he hired could hide in the crowd and quietly get rid of people. This wasn’t something an ordinary person could do.
Were they secret agents?
When this thought occurred to Song Kai, he was even more certain that Jiang Jingchen had many secrets.
“What are you planning to do to Zhu Fan?”
“Is it any of your business?”
Song Kai gritted his teeth. “It is indeed none of my business. It’s my fault for meddling. It’s also my fault for introducing Zhu Fan to Ruan Qi.”
Although Song Kai hated Jiang Jingchen’s high and mighty attitude, he felt that he was partly responsible for what happened.
“Song Kai, your values are a little askew.” Jiang Jingchen said suddenly like an elder.
Song Kai was stunned and furious at the same time. “It seems that Young Master Jiang has too much time on his hands. Instead of taking care of your wife, you’re meddling in my business. What does my values have to do with you?”
“Mr. Song Kai, our cooperation could be ruined because of your distorted worldview.”
Jiang Jingchen’s tone sounded a little lazy but it made Song Kai nervous.
“What do you mean?”
“There are many things that you don’t need to do yourself. Once your hands are dirty, it’s very difficult to wash them clean.” Jiang Jingchen wanted to help him and added, “Does Song Hai know that you were the one who captured him?”
“Jiang Jingchen, how did you know?” Song Kai was shocked. He thought that he had done that in secret.
“Answer my question. Does he know that it was you?”
“I’m not that stupid to let him know that it was me. 1 just wanted him to experience what it felt like to be locked up in a dark room for days like he has done to me. I never wanted to hurt him.”
Song Kai’s hatred for the Song family wasn’t just about his mother. It was also about the harm the Song family had done to him and the unspeakable experiences they had put him through.
Jiang Jingchen said, “If you want to continue working with me, listen to me and let him go..”
